BRISTOL PALIN has been given a book deal to write her memoirs.
The daughter of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin has signed with William Morrow to publish ‘Not Afraid of Life’, to come out this summer. Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollins, has announced that the memoir would provide “an inside look at her life”.
A spokesperson for William Morrow:
Bristol gives readers an intimate behind-the-scenes look at her life for the first time, from growing up in Alaska to coming of age amid the media and political frenzy surrounding her mother’s political rise; from becoming a single mother while still a teenager to coping as her relationship with her baby’s father crumbled publicly — not once, but twice.
A listing for the book briefly appeared last month on Amazon.com and on an online HarperCollins spreadsheet. HarperCollins has published two best-sellers by Sarah Palin, the Republican vice presidential candidate in 2008: ‘Going Rogue’ and ‘America by Heart’.
Bristol Palin, 20, has become a celebrity in her own right, through her broken relationship with her child’s father, Levi Johnston, and through her time as a contestant on Dancing With the Stars.
“Bristol talks about the highs and lows of her appearance on ABC-TV’s Dancing With the Stars, including the aching hours of practice, the biting criticisms, and the thrill of getting to the show’s finals,” Morrow announced.
She speaks candidly of her aspirations for the future and the deep religious faith that gives her strength and inspiration. Plainspoken and disarmingly down to earth, Bristol offers new insight and understanding of who she is and what she values most.
Morrow did not disclose how much Palin will be paid in the book deal.

Live a better – put away phone and get outside
@Chris lynch: Live a better life*
Buy a 128GB storage phone, problem solved.
Genuine answer, if you have the google photos app you can just sett hat to back up your pics (though a little compressed if you’re on a free account) and let your phone automatically delete the device copies for you. Unless you’re mad for large apps that’s all that the majority of people need to do.
On an iPhone, if you’re running out of space, attempt to rent a large HD movie from iTunes Store. It will tell you you have insufficient storage and will clear out temporary files etc.
I can regularly regain about 1Gb from about 250Mb
@Ronan BBurke: went from 1.58gb to 4.24gb in 2 mins..cheers
@Graham McNamara: Just be aware – if you try this with a movie that will fit on your phone… you’ll get charged. I usually pick something new and long – at least 3-4GB. Use it maybe once a month or so. Haven’t gotten charged. It doesn’t work if you click ‘buy movie’, only with ‘rent’.
Back in the 3210 days when you had to delete your text messages if you had over 50!
Just use your phone to annoy other posters on the journal.
On Android, going to Apps and clearly the cache will save reclaim considerable space, the browser along could have 300Mb – 1Gb, YouTube app also can have a large cache. Work your way down through the list clearing the cache in each as you go can help when short. Also delete games or ones you don’t often use, they tend to be 100Mb+ generally.
have your say
